Playing our new fave game during some downtime. I first think of a spelling pattern for them to find. Then they guess things that can and can’t go on the trip. A lot of the things are silly. The goal is to find a pattern. They love it😍 @rmkirkbride@MaryMyers11@JMCSchools
On this day in 1960, Ruby Bridges became the first African-American to attend a white elementary school in the South.
A visual reminder of what she faced every day.
Who you gonna call? Ghostbusters! My kids were so engaged with our ghost noun hunt this afternoon. It made my heart so happy to hear them reading with their partner and talking about nouns. We ain’t afraid of no ghosts👻 @rmkirkbride@MaryMyers11@AndrewElem
